A user complained to sipb that w20-575-52 (an ultra 5) rebooted
unexpectedly on him.  I looked at the logs on urania, and it turned out
to have logged a power button pressed message.

The user swears that he didn't touch the button.

Looking back thought the logs, that machine had logged three such button
presses this week, which is a good bit more than other machines seem to.
I'm thinking that perhaps the button has a loose connection and registers
too easily.  Is there any way someone could check this out?
